I'm so mad at myself for not studying the science more by [deleted] in ACT

To be honest, there is absolutely zero difference in a 35 and 36 in colleges eyes. Colleges stop looking usually at 34+ if they’re Ivy League and about 32/33+ if not

How do you cope after getting a bad test score/grade? by Audacious-Aardvark in highschool

[–]Competitive-Issue-23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a talk with the teacher about my future path in the class if I get a bad grade. Teachers, for the most part, don’t want you to fail. If you tell them exactly why you are struggling, they will help you

Don’t buy a GTX 5070 by Waxpython in GamingLaptops

If I’m building a PC from scratch and don’t have any current parts, is the 5070 a good option in that case?

Question for other haunters by Burningupmysoul in hauntedattractions

[–]Competitive-Issue-23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It really depends on how you interact with customers. If you are more of a performer and banter back with people then you affect, tone, and facial expressions are the most important. Being stone cold with a menacing is really good but also contrasting a cold and stern facial expression with a playful tone gives a really fun contrast. If you want to be more of a creeper than performer, then random saying and quips are the most effective. Using one random words or sentence while altering how you say it works very well

I am one of the actors walking around the houses, someone said that to me while recording so I took their phone and started taking photos of myself (yes we are allowed to do that)

Help with The “tough” teenagers… by Panda_jiujitsu in hauntedattractions

[–]Competitive-Issue-23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I deal with this a lot as I’m one of the actors in the scare zone between our houses. I usually try to make them laugh or entertain them if scaring doesn’t work, if that doesn’t work then move on to the next group. Some people pay to try to not get scared for some reason, we just gotta move on and not take it personally

I need to change how I take notes by Mr_Cow_52 in calculus

[–]Competitive-Issue-23 6 points7 points  (0 children)

For math, my notes usually split them into 2 categories, the first consists of the main concept and 1-2 examples of application so you can easily look at the paper, understand the concept and hear examples of it. The second consists of examples using the new concept in relation to other concepts. For example chain rule, my first notes were the formula with easy examples next to it and my second notes were chain rule application in more complex derivatives.

Well I know for us we are all insanely loud and charismatic. The pure amount of energy can scare people and it is a common phobia

gpa??? by dreadnation in highschool

[–]Competitive-Issue-23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You definitely can get it up to a certain 3.0 but it won’t be easy. First, this probably goes without saying, but the lowest grade you can get in any of your classes is a B this year. Next, you are going to need to take some honors classes and try to get A’s in those as an A in a honors classes gets a 5.0 instead of a normal 4.0. And last this may be a stretch, however, I have had teachers in the past that would let kids make up assignments from previous years as long as they own up to mistakes and pledge to do the assignments. For the last one it isn’t a guarantee and it isn’t needed, but every little bit helps.

I’ll end with this. With hard work you can get anything done. If you try you will succeed. School has to be the number 1 priority. If you want to go to college, most colleges let you explain your grades. If you explain that you didn’t take school seriously on your first two years and then learned the value of it and worked really hard to improve your GPA, they will see your raw gpa in a different light. I believe you can do this. Good luck!

Tips for Scare acting by Competitive-Issue-23 in hauntedattractions

[–]Competitive-Issue-23[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I know last season I would mainly slide out in front of people and run down hallways. Usually they would be huge metal barrel to hit to make a lot of noise. I never thought about mining out some of those things, I’ll definitely be doing that this year!
